The difference in living environment would cause people to have different views on things. Zhao Hai came from Earth, where merchants were very good. Moreover, a good merchant was definitely a talent.
Not to mention Earth, even in the Ark Continent, the Great Nobles were also merchants. And the Great Merchants of the Ark Continent were also very good.
However, Zhao Hai was currently in the Underworld. In the Underworld, people only believed in strength. Everything else was fake, only strength was real. Because of this, merchants like Yuri weren't welcomed in the Underworld. Although Yuri's strength was good, Addison still looked down on him. In Addison's opinion, if Yuri used his time as a merchant to cultivate, then he would be even stronger.
Before long, the group arrived at a tower in the city. Zhao Hai also discovered that almost every city in the Underworld had a tower like this. Needless to say, the people living in these towers were all City Lords.
After arriving at the tower, the group got off the carriage and quickly entered the tower. Upon entering Yuri's tower, Zhao Hai immediately felt the difference. The tower had a lot of rooms, and the overall layout wasn't too different from Campula's tower. However, the decorations here were much better compared to Campula's tower.
Naturally, almost all of the decorations in the tower were made of bones. There were all kinds of bones, and all kinds of colors. It looked as if one was walking on a devil's altar.
However, Zhao Hai knew that in the Underworld, bones were something that people couldn't do without. In their view, bones were materials that could be used, just like how humans view trees.
Before long, Yuri led the two into a room inside the tower. Upon entering the room, Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare. This was because the room looked like a huge warehouse, it was filled with things.
Zhao looked at those things. They were really comprehensive. There were all kinds of things, from small bones to huge skulls that were taller than a person. Everything was there.
Zhao Hai walked around the room a few times and looked at the things inside. One of them was the skull. However, Zhao Hai didn't immediately say what he wanted. Instead, he looked at Yuri and said, "What's wrong? Do you only have these things? "
When Yuri heard Zhao Hai, he quickly replied, "Of course not. This is only one of my warehouses. There are many more inside. If Mister isn't satisfied, then you can take a look inside."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Let's take a look inside first. I hope I can find something that I'm satisfied with."
Then Yuri led Zhao Hai to another room. The things in this room were similar. Zhao Hai couldn't help but be disappointed. However, since Yuri said that he had many more rooms, Zhao Hai had no choice but to be patient.
When they reached the eighth room, Zhao Hai suddenly saw something. It was a small beast made of bones. It looked like a tiger, but it had a horn. It looked very powerful and lifelike. When Zhao Hai saw this small beast, his eyes couldn't help but shine. Although he didn't know what this small beast was used for, Zhao Hai had a feeling that this small beast wasn't ordinary.
When Yuri saw that Zhao Hai was paying attention to the small beast, he couldn't help but stare. This small beast had been in his possession for some time. However, in the Underworld, people only cared about strength and didn't have any artistic taste. Because of this, this small beast wasn't sold. Yuri wasn't optimistic about this thing. He thought that it was something made by the Undead, so he didn't care much about it. He just casually placed it there. He didn't think that Zhao Hai would be interested in it.
Zhao Hai gently picked up the small beast and looked at it carefully. The small beast was made of bone, but he didn't know what kind of bone it was. It was very heavy, it felt like he was holding a lump of iron. Zhao Hai turned it over and over for a while before he put it down. Then he turned to Yuri and said, "City Lord, let's not be polite. You can take me to look at all of your warehouses. Once I'm done, I'll give you a list of things that I want. Naturally, you have to give me a fair price, but if you don't, then I won't accept anything. To tell you the truth, there are a lot of things that I want in your warehouses." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "City Lord, I don't need to be polite. You can take me to look at all of your warehouses.
When he heard Zhao Hai, Yuri's eyes couldn't help but light up as he said, "Alright, Mister Zhao Hai, you're really straightforward. This Yuri has always been fair when doing business. If someone buys something expensive from me, then I'm willing to compensate you ten times the price. Mister, please come with me."
Hearing Yuri's words, Zhao Hai couldn't help but smile faintly. He discovered that no matter what plane he was in, the essence of a merchant was the same. This kind of compensation would be used no matter where they were.
Zhao Hai didn't expect Yuri to have so many warehouses. There were fifteen of them. After Zhao Hai looked through the warehouses, he immediately gave a list to Yuri.
Zhao Hai's goods were quite a lot. Fifteen warehouses, and Zhao Hai asked for nearly 2000 items. This was almost a fifth of Yuri's goods.
Yuri was very excited. He didn't think that he would be able to do such a big business. This was the biggest business that he had ever done in his life.
Zhao Hai used low-grade Soul Fires and Soul Crystals to pay for these goods. Yuri didn't object to this. On the contrary, Yuri agreed to this method of transaction. This was because this method would allow him to make more money.
Although low-grade Soul Fires and Soul Crystals were the currency of the Underworld, they were also the things that people needed the most. Because of this, their value was very high. Yuri could use his authority as well as the convenience of Dry Bone City to sell some goods to Zhao Hai in exchange for low-grade Soul Fires and Soul Crystals. Then he could use these Soul Crystals and Soul Fires to buy more goods before selling them. This way, even if he didn't do anything, he would still be able to make a lot of money. This was Yuri's goal.
The reason why Zhao Hai was so generous in taking out so many Soul Fires and Soul Crystals was because these two things could now be produced by the Space.
When Zhao Hai first brought Soul Fires and Soul Crystals to the Space, the value that the Space had for these two things was energy. The Space could extract their energy and then produce them. It could even optimize these two types of energy. In other words, it could turn low-grade Soul Fires and low-grade Soul Stones into high-grade ones.
When Zhao Hai heard this prompt, he knew that he wasn't short on money in the Underworld. As long as he was interested in something, he could buy it.
This time, Zhao Hai paid Yuri 200 thousand low-grade Soul Stones for these 2000 goods. This made Yuri very happy. At the same time, the things that Zhao Hai bought were also stored inside the Space.
Regarding Zhao Hai's ability to store things inside the Space, Yuri couldn't help but be envious. In the Underworld, there weren't a lot of Space Equipment, only people with high status would have them. Although Yuri's status wasn't low, he still didn't have any Space Equipment. Therefore, he could only be envious.
When those things were stored inside the Space, besides the plants that were unique to the Underworld, there were two other things that attracted Zhao Hai's attention. One was a huge skeleton. These skeletons were the skeletons that Zhao Hai saw in the first warehouse. However, the Space's prompt made Zhao Hai surprised. The prompt that the Space gave to Zhao Hai was that Zhao Hai's level was too low, so he didn't have the authority to look at these skeletons. This made Zhao Hai startled. He didn't think that these skeletons would be high level goods. Therefore, he couldn't help but carefully store the skeletons.
The second thing that attracted Zhao Hai's attention was the small bone beast that Zhao Hai saw before. When Zhao Hai placed the small bone beast into the Space, he immediately heard a prompt, "Beast Battle Armor for Dark Creatures and Undead. This armor can strengthen the offensive and defensive capabilities of Undead and Dark Creatures. Any Dark Creatures and Undead can use this armor. This armor can be turned into a plant. After being turned into a plant, the seed of this armor can be added to the Space's store. This seed is a special seed for the Black Earth. Does the Host want to turn this armor into a plant? If the Host agrees to turn this armor into a plant, the Host will be deducted 100 thousand gold coins! "
When Zhao Hai heard this prompt, he couldn't help but stare blankly. He didn't think that this bone beast would turn out to be a battle armor. To put it bluntly, this small beast was a battle armor similar to the Twelve Constellations. Moreover, it was a battle armor for the Undead. For Zhao Hai, this was definitely good news.
However, Zhao Hai didn't show it, his face was still calm. After the transaction was completed, Zhao Hai turned his head to Yuri and said, "City Lord Yuri, I didn't expect you to have so many good things. Good, very good. I'm very satisfied with this transaction. City Lord Yuri, can I ask you for a favor?" Yuri nodded and said, "Good.
Yuri was also very satisfied with this transaction. This was because he made a lot of money this time. Now that he heard Zhao Hai, he immediately replied, "Mister, please speak. For a big customer like you, we will certainly help you."
Zhao Hai faintly said, "I like all kinds of plants in the Underworld. As long as you can get your hands on them, I'll take them all. Moreover, I also like those huge skeletons and small beasts. You should know that I'm a Pharaoh. Our Pharaoh race is very tasteful. Those small beasts are very exquisite, they look like works of art. Therefore, I'll take as many of those small beasts as you can get. The same goes for those huge skeletons. I want to see if I can assemble those skeletons and turn them into my servants. If I can have a few of them, then it would be very impressive.
Don't you think so? "Yuri stared blankly at Zhao Hai's words. He was really shocked. He didn't think that Zhao Hai would make such a request. To be honest, this request wasn't difficult for Yuri. Although there weren't many plants in the Underworld, Dry Bone City was an important commercial city in the Freedom Alliance. Therefore, it wasn't difficult for Yuri to obtain plants.
As for the huge skeletons that Zhao Hai mentioned, they weren't anything special. In fact, there were a lot of people who had the same idea as Zhao Hai. However, none of them succeeded. Those huge skeletons seemed to be dead. Moreover, it was impossible to put a soul inside. Therefore, these skeletons were kept as collectibles and didn't have much use.
Yuri hadn't seen those small beasts made of bones before. He only had one in his possession. Moreover, he didn't hear about anyone else having more. It can be said that these skeletons were the most difficult to obtain.
However, this wasn't a problem for Yuri. He was a qualified merchant. As long as there was profit to be made, he would do it. Therefore, when he heard Zhao Hai, Yuri immediately replied, "Alright, Mister can rest assured. I will certainly fulfill your request. However, I don't know when Mister will come to collect these things. Take those plants for example. If Mister doesn't come, they will die."
Zhao Hai thought for a moment and said, "Alright, I'll come here once a month. As long as you collect the things I want, I'll take them all. However, there's one thing we need to agree on. I don't have any requirements for the plants and skeletons. This is because you can tell at a glance whether they are real or fake. However, I have requirements for the small beasts made of bones. I think City Lord Yuri should have seen those beasts before. Not only are they exquisitely crafted, they are also heavier than ordinary beasts. Most importantly, they don't look like creatures from the Underworld. Therefore, City Lord Yuri, you must pay attention when you collect those small beasts. I don't care about their appearance, but their craftsmanship and materials must be the same as the small beasts. Otherwise, I wouldn't want them.
As soon as he heard Zhao Hai, Yuri couldn't help but stare. Then his eyes flashed with a strange light. He really wanted to find some Undead to make those small beasts and then sell them to Zhao Hai. But now that he heard Zhao Hai, he didn't dare to do so. This was because Yuri hadn't seen the bones used to make those small beasts. Even if he wanted to imitate them, he wouldn't be able to do so.
However, Yuri didn't show any of this. He immediately nodded and said to Zhao Hai, "Mister can rest assured. This Yuri has a reputation for doing business."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he looked at Yuri and said, "Then it's settled. City Lord Yuri, let's have a happy cooperation in the future."
Yuri also said to Zhao Hai, "Happy cooperation!" Then both of them laughed. They were very satisfied with this result.
